YouTube Uploaded by MediaArtTube on Jan 28, 2012

"Three units, which are resembling standard record players, translate concentric visual patterns into control signals for further processing in any music software. The rotation of the discs, each holding three tracks, can be synced to a sequencer.
In cooperation with the sounddesigner/ producer Yannick Labbé of TRICKSKI fame, we developed three unique discs, each controlling one track of an Ableton Live Set exclusively made for the Event. The show was supported by a set of realtime generated visuals, running on a 25m wide LED wall.

KORG DS-10 PLUS: 'Headlock (Anthony Seeha Remix)' By Imogen Heap


YouTube Uploaded by seehanth001 on Jan 28, 2012

"This is my Korg DS-10 Plus remix of Imogen Heap's 'Headlock'.
I asked my brother to find a vocal track for me so that I could remix it and he suggested this song. I never heard the song's instrumental before, so I thought that would be a good place to create my own ideas for the remix. I decided to make a progressive house remix to this song! Please enjoy! =)

Jordan Passmore, Korg KR-55b, Boss HandClapper HC-2, Boss RSD-10 Sampler/Delay Jam


YouTube Uploaded by jordanpassmore on Jan 14, 2012
via this auction
"A live jam with the Korg KR-55b, Boss HandClapper HC-2, and Boss RSD-10 Sampler/Delay. The drum machine is sending pulses to the HC-2 via trigger allowing it to play every half bar. Near the end of the video I mess around with the KR-55b's trigger speed selection, making the HC-2 play much faster. Instruments were recorded directly into my soundcard (RME Multiface) totally dry"

via this auction

"The sound is very competitive to the Roland TR-808, surprisingly. The KR-55b model has double the amount of presets as the original KR-55. It has a trigger-out that can be used to clock other analog synths, sequencers, drum machines, and pedals. Here is a demo [above] of the actual unit for sale (none of the other equipment is included)"

KORG SIGMA interesting bi-timbric synthesizer

via this auction
awakewalk (RSS) |
"The Sigma is an interesting bi-timbric synthesizer consisting of two sections: a genuine analog "Synthe" and a Preset "Instrument" section. All together, there are 19 presets on it that give a variety of sounds. There are 11 presets for the "Instrument" section which include fuzz guitar, electric bass, clavi, string, flute, double reed, trumpet, hammered percussion, etc. And there are 8 presets for the "Synthe" section that give variable waveforms (square, pulse, sawtooth) in different pitch ranges (from 32' to 4'). Each preset has its own rotary control to vary its sounds. The Sigma is also unique for its ability to combine the synth and instrument sections for a nicer, layered synth sound or effect. While the synth section is nice, the instrumental sounds (tuba, trumpet, strings, guitar, etc.) are pretty darn bad, and only get interesting when mixed with the "Synthe" section sounds."

Roland SYSTEM-100m D-set professional analog modular synthesizer

via this auction

"The System 100m is Roland's contribution to professional analog modular synthesis. It was based on the more limited, semi-modular System 100, but is several steps of ahead of its predecessor. The System 100m offers over 20 modular components to pick and choose to design a custom modular set-up. The Main unit is the M-110 which has a single VCO oscillator, VCF, and VCA section. You can then build upon this system adding any number and configurations of the various other modules which include dual VCOs, ring modulators, dual VCFs, eq, dual VCAs, dual envelopes, LFOs, various effects, mixers, sequencers, and control interfaces including 3 different keyboard controllers.

Modules are assembled into racks. The System 100m has 3 rack sizes, the M-190 holds 3 modules, the M-191 and M-191J hold 5 modules. Each rack provides the necessary 8-pin DIN power connectors and internal CV/gate connections between the modules. You still need to do some external patching, however, to send your signal through the modules of your choice to create any sounds. As for sounds, the System is basically monophonic, unless you get several racks of them for lots and lots of money! Its sound is not as warm as the System 100 before it, but it offers much more capability"

Oberheim FVS-1 Four Voice Synthesizer SN 0654


via this auction

"Oberheim only made about 800 of these between 1974-79. Each voice has its own module each containing all analog synthesis with 2- voltage controlled oscillators per voice module and with some external programming capability. There is a two-pole multimode VCF, VCA, two ASR envelope generators, and one LFO. Memory contains 16 presets, VCO:8 (sawtooth, square or pulse), LFO:4, Portamento, Vibrato,VCF(bandpass, lowpass, notch, highpass) . You can hear used this on every song on the Grand Illusion album by Styx.

A big step forward after the initial Oberheim SEM and Two Voice synthesizers came from the bigger and better Four Voice. Four dual-oscillator SEM modules each with its own filters and envelopes are joined together along with a simple analog mixer and 49-note keyboard to give you a polyphonic/polytonal Obie-beast!

This combination gives you eight oscillators and four voices of polyphony because there are basically four discrete mono-synths all connected together. This has its pros and cons. What is cool is that this was a lot of simultaneous voices for the mid-seventies. And the ability to craft a different sound on each voice led to some diverse and complex sounds. However, it also meant you have to program each voice independently. Each voice also has its own independent audio output.

The Polyphonic Synthesizer Programmer, released in 1976 and added to the Four Voice stores 16 patches per voice (all of which can be different). The Four Voice could accommodate an additional four SEMs, making it just like the Eight Voice model which officially appeared in 1977.

Unfortunately the Four Voice was blown out of the competition by the release of the polyphonic Sequential Prophet-5, which offered true polyphony with a single set of sound shaping controls and comprehensive patch memory...

Hammond Novachord with Service Manual

via this auction
"For Sale is a Hammond Novachord fully polyphonic valve synthesiser. This is one of the most unique synthesizers that you can buy at the moment. These were produced in the USA between 1939 - 1942, only 1024 were made with very few surviving to this day. This is one of only two known models in the UK.

The Novachord is complete but in need of total electronic restoration. It is not known whether these came with a bench, this has the bench of a Hammond B3 which matches perfectly.

It is possible to restore these as people have shown in the past. It is not a job for the faint hearted. [See the Novachord Restoration Project]

The Novachord has its original PSU but the amp in the picture is not original neither are the speakers, these are believed to have been replaced in the 50's!

The serial plate is missing but the previous owner believes that the serial number is 197 and this may be stamped on the chassis somewhere.

Below is a youtube video link that shows a working model in action." [posted here]
